Question to the speaker

Please clarify this for me. This is one aspect of politics which I do not understand.

Rep. Peter King R-NY is proposing a law which would prohibit any person from carrying a gun within 1,000 feet of certain federal officials to include congressmen. Now I know the congressman is not stupid so why would he propose this.

My question is who would this law likely stop from carrying a gun near a federal official?

A. a schizophrenic, leftist, dope smoking, punk rocker who has no problem breaking the law by committing capital murder.

OR

B. A law abiding citizen similar to the one in Arizona who ran from a nearby store and held the murderer down. (he just happened to have been armed himself).

With actions like this the republican party could very well become a third party in the future.

The progressives want to limit our freedom of speech, ignore the constitution, limit our right to bear arms, along with degrading other liberties.

If the republican party is to survive it needs to be an opposition party and not a party of complicity.
